Like a lot of you I recently tried using AI to ditch some annoying tasks, in this case LinkedIn marketing for the company I freelance for.
Stock photography was letting me down, so I used DALL-E to request a photo of a woman jogger. Much has already been said about bias in AI, and to DALL-E’s credit, I got a mix of races to choose from in its output.
But every single jogger lady was cake pop — as in a body so skinny that the head riding on top looked like a cake ball on a stick.
I tried adding “curvy” but that was worse. DALL-E added some heft but — you guessed it — only in the chest.
